Construction worker, Wally Wellington, demonstrating how bricks could have been moved in ancient times. He claims that a pyramid could be completed using primitive tools in a 25-year construction schedule with only 520 workers.

This clip is probably the single greatest example of how the MAGA cult works

Well ackshually, historians dont use the term "Dark Age" anymore We prefer the term "Age of Willful Ignorance" to describe our post-truth era. Bonus points because boomers are also at the age of willful ignorance

This is, sadly, what this place has become: death treats, racism, antisemitism, sexism, ableism. Those disseminators of pseudo and fake science do not only attract this kind of audience - they also particularly address it with their rhetoric of hate and incitement.

Say what you want about pseudoarchaeology, but it's just silly Why would you prefer a more entertaining, but laughably false narrative over the detailed richness and nuanced messiness of the real evidence for our shared human past?

Oh yeah... Cause trans people are something new 🙄🙄 Gimme a break. Just listen to this 50 yr old song by Lou Reed Or go read the world's first novel... The Golden Ass by Apuleius Trans people are as old as culture https://t.co/wPlvzuCWJa

Yawn. Bigotry and hatred in reply to this post Color me unsurprised

The hatred I see everyday towards trans people is disgusting. Disgusting to hate people you share this planet with. I'll keep my pronouns in bio, in solidarity with trans people

Thanks a lot for all your interest in our work and research at early Neolithic #GöbekliTepe! Very much appreciated! Definitely recommending to check out all the great info and resources collected at our "Tepe Telegrams" blog. 👍 https://t.co/rh0SGrDItO
